Deck overview

This Araumi of the Dead Tide deck is a synergistic Dimir graveyard strategy designed to multiply creature enter-the-battlefield and death triggers across three opponents. The deck rapidly fills its graveyard using efficient self-mill creatures and targeted tutors like Buried Alive. Once Araumi is operational and equipped with haste or untap enablers, it exiles graveyard fodder to encore devastating payoffs. Encoring Gray Merchant of Asphodel drains each opponent for 21 or more life in a single turn, while encored edict creatures systematically dismantle opposing creature boards and hands. The deck supports this aggressive clock with efficient countermagic, board disruption, creature theft, and redundant reanimation spells that keep pressure high even if the commander faces targeted removal.
